Selucia to declare salary difference illegal nationwideThe central government follows the steps of the Insularian Government Women taking the streets of Auroria celebrating the legislation in the biggest manifestation ever recordedToday, Caesar of Selucia Argos Loukas has announced the Senate the proposal of the Government to declare wage inequality between both sexes and any group, regardless of sex, gender identity, ethnic group, sexual identity, nationality or religion illegal nationwide, taking inspiration for the law created and approved by the Insularian government under Ares Zervas.
Now, the prohibition and illegality of wage will differential and stablish that the same work must obtain the same remuneration regardless of sex, gender identity, ethnic group, sexual identity, nationality or the religion, under huge fines if companies break it.
Experts on gender equality have welcomed the measure and hope that Selucian legislation will encourage other nations worldwide to address this scourge. They also underscore the need to combat the lack of policies in favor of women on a global scale.
There is still a long way to go, as Mr. Loukas claimed. He has said that despite 42% of the Selucian Senate made up of women, there is a lack of females in the top of big bussiness and other institutions.
Success can be attributed to the fact that women assume power and create alternatives to the dominant masculine 'truths' and make visible the invisible realities of women, especially discriminatory practices, including sexual harassment and abuse.
The report ends by stressing that "the progress of Selucia can be attributed to the fact that women and men share power among themselves as decision-makers" and that, in addition, more and more "men support gender equality".
After the announcement, that is about to pass the Senate due to the absolute majority of the ruling party In Marea-Civis Sinistram, progressist and feminist groups have encouraged everyone to go on the streets and celebrate all along Selucia, resulting in the biggest marchs ever recorded in the nation, with numbers rounding a million participants in major cities and the collapse of traffic and other places within the nation.
We have taken the first step. Now it's time to make it real. If companies don't take us seriously, they will see. This legislation is about to be passed in our national chamber, and once it is done, we will do everything in our hands to make sure it is accomplished.
